Hello,
My VNA has an option for entering the electrical length and the S parameter phase offset.
I understand that the option for electical length is so that I can move the plane of measurment from the end of my cables right upto the component on my DUT.
Why on earth do I need to enter an S paramter phase offset? I would have thought the S paramater phase offset would be calculated from the electrical length.
What then is difference between these two options? Why do I need both?
Thankyou
